Answer:

C.) percent= 20%, Amount=unknown, Base =50

Explanation:

The percent is the percent, so 20% is the percent.

The number you take the percent of is the base. The base is 50.

Once you calculate the percent of the base, you get the amount.

We are given the percent, 20%, the base, 50, but not the amount.
